I got a sweet deal directly through Sony last year for Vegas 7 that I was able to take advantage of. Hopefully they'll have a similiar "promotion"

Spot, I've been waiting to hear those words from you "You're gonna love it". I feel a heck of a lot better now. Not kidding.

I'm very pleased. Heaven knows I wish I could say more. Even with all the V8 rumors flying, links to websites, etc...
All I can say is "how sweet it is."

More to come on launch day.

So does that really equate to the full release date? Them showing it and it being a product available for purchase seems like it could be a lot different.

Maybe DSE could write a little mini review prior to the release and once it does become available, he could post it.

Vegas, traditionally, released new versions on the second day of NAB, with downloadable licensing made available simultaneously. I've no reason to beleive that that won't be their MO at IBC.

Wasn't Vegas 7 released for purchase on the same day it was unveiled at IBC last year? Honestly can't remember...

And Spot, thanks for the teases about Vegas 8 - I'm very excited, being back in Vegas after my flirtation with FCP...

Spot, do you need a "very discreet" proofreader or editor to make sure it is ready for publishing when needed? I'm available. :)

Well, those enhancements do look great. I'm also hoping there will be another 10-15% timeline performance increase while working with HD (specifically HDV raw .m2t). Multicam being built in is great, but kinda hurts Vasst who's offered a really good solution to that.

The price looks about right assuming they are selling the "full" version of the software. I'm hoping Sony makes version 8 available for the mid $200 on a promotional upgrade type of release like they did last year.

Even if just the ProType Titler and the Multi-Camera part are true, we'll be ordering seven upgrades the week it comes out.

Professionally, I work at what is probably considered the lower end of scale. (I produce/shoot/edit local Cable TV shows with at most a three person crew.) But from where I'm sitting, it seems to me that Apple and Sony Creative Software are the most aware of what tools us working-class video makers really need and want.

Same here, although Ultimate S has solved my multicamera problems nicely. In the same vein, I've been considering getting AE just for the titling capabilities alone (okay, and maybe some 3d photo montage work, too)... but maybe now I won't need to.
